For a good sound of the locomotive, the installation of the speaker is essentiel.
The best sound decoders useless if an inappropriate speaker should be used or
the installa- tion of the speaker does not fit. So be careful when choosing the
mounting location and creating a resonance period. In general, two principles:
1) Select the speaker as large as possible. The larger the speaker, the better the
bass response will be.
2.) Be sure to use for each speaker a resonance nanzkörper: A speaker is
simply attached somewhere inside the locomotive without corresponding
resonance nanzkörper can never provide a good sound.
Please handle speakers with extreme care: do not put pressure on them and
touch the Memb- not rane! The speaker's magnets are very strong! Hal you th
all metal objects from the speakers away and secure the speaker firmly when
soldering the cables because otherwise u. U. speaker is attracted by the
soldering iron and can be destroyed.
Use for soldering a small soldering iron (max. 20W) and heat quickly, only the
two contact outer surfaces of the speaker. The polarity is insignificant when
using a speaker.
6.9.1. LokSound LokSound 5 and 5 micro
It can all speakers (combinations) with a total samtimpedanz 4-16 ohms and a
capacity of at least 1.5 W (better: 2W) are used. We recommend the services we
ESU speaker of 4 ohms or 8 ohms impedance, as they are matched in sound.
LokSound LokSound 5 and 5 micro decoders are shipped from the factory with a
11x15mm "sugar cube" speakers together with matching sound kit. The
loudspeaker itself is already adhered to a base plate and connected to two dark
brown NEN strands with the sound decoders.
The minimum height of the unattached Resonanzkör- pers is (base frame and
cover) 6 mm and can be enlarged by incorporation of up to three intermediate
rings on 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, 11mm or 13mm. There are two intermediate rings
with 2mm and included a ring with 3mm height.
Intermediate ring 3mm
Intermediate ring 2mm

6.9.1.1. Assembling the soundboard
First, disconnect the intermediate rings and the cover of the re sonanzkörpers by
injection molding. Then insert the Grundrah- men, intermediate rings and cover
together (possibly with Tesaflm fxieren) and make the installation sample:
Adjusts the sound chamber in the model? Remove any spacers. If everything
fits, together menkleben the sound chamber with a plastic adhesive. Start with
the lid (bottom) and stick all the intermediate rings and the carrier plate together.
We recom- missing a Kunststoffkeber (eg UHU® Plast Special). Apply glue thin,
but all sides on so that the sound chamber is airtight.
In the last step of the speakers must be hermetically bonded into the Schallkap-
sel. First apply a little (!) Adhesive on the red dotted position in the base frame
on. Mount then the respective speakers in the base frame. The small holding
noses engage and hold the speaker.
